I Wanted To Like This Movie But

Rating: 3/10 (9 March 2015)

I wanted to like this movie but couldn't. How it rates a 7.0 I do not know. Even the worst Godzilla movie is better than this one. This movie is good for a one time rental but I would not want to own it. The acting is terrible, the CG monster action is too much in your face and not very realistic. This movie was made for teenage boys and nothing else. Everything is macho. Macho actors, macho monsters, macho robots. The only thing not macho was the script. Sorry, the new Godzilla 2014 movie is 100 times better. I'm glad the director did not have the time to direct the Godzilla movie. I am a life long monster movie fan from back in the 30's until present time and so I know what makes a good monster movie and Pacific Rim is not it. When Pacific Rim 2 comes out I will not be lining up to see it at the movies and will not be renting it on DVD.
